Category Type:

NEUTRAL+[?]

If pronation is not a problem then choose Neutral+ shoes.
When choosing running shoes, find your perfect fit using this chart. Category types are based on factors like arch height, running habits and body frame.

I have high arches and narrow heels with a neutral gait and mid-foot strike, and finding running shoes that fit has always been a challenge. I ran in Adidas Boston Classics for a decade - and still have 2 pairs in "strategic reserve" tucked away in the closet. The Glycerin 10 fit well, but did not have good transition from strike to toe-off, good cushion but not enough rebound/bounce. The Glycerin 11 somehow nailed the transition behavior for me. My strides are more efficient than in the Boston Classics (evidenced by very quiet foot strikes), and although there is substantially less cushion, I don't have joint pain or other problems after a run. The Glycerin 12 definitely has more cushion, but for me the loss in lateral and transitional accuracy makes it less attractive than the 11's. My usual distance is 5-6 miles, a few times a week.

I alternate between shoes to make them last longer. I used them on the treadmill to break them in. I like this shoe but the Brooks Ghost are better for me so far in this early test. This shoe has a lot of cushioning so they are good for the longer runs.

Well made shoe with quality components. Cushioning just right. Run 15-18 miles week on pavement. Shoe has held up great. No knee pain, keeps legs fresh. Toe box not to big or snug for the average width foot. One of the most quiet and balanced shoes I have ever owned when just walking through the house.Definitely not a race shoe. Bought a second pair on sale, was waiting on the Glycerin 12 but when tried them on I preferred the 11s.

This is my 2nd pair of Glycerins. I started with the 10's and now the 11's. I thought it didn't get any better than the 10 until I wore the 11. Hopefully the 12 will be even better. Whether it's running hills in Flagstaff, the roads near my house or the treadmill at the gym, the shoe just works.

After wearing the Glycerin 10 which is the best running shoe I have ever worn I knew it would be a tough act to follow for Brooks. The 3d construction of the 11 is superior to the 10 and the durability seems better than the 10. But the 11 runs wide and does not have the cushoined supportive feel of the 10. Also the color selection was pretty poor this time around. Overall the 11 is a well made shoe but is not an ideal running shoe for me.

I tried these on at the store after doing the Shoe Dog evaluation. They felt perfect as opposed to the Glycerin 8's which I really never felt comfortable with. I will use for my long runs as they are supportive and have the right amount of cushioning - not too soft.

I had previously gave this shoe a bad review. After trying a pair of Saucony Triumph 11...horrible...sent em back! I thought maybe I didn't give the Glycerine 11 enough of a chance, got another pair...did a couple of 7 milers and only had slight soreness in arch. After a few more runs the soreness went away and I have had no problems. LOVE this SHOE! After I got use to it, it seems to be more like the 9's than the 10's. Highly recommend this shoe!

I use the shoe as my daily trainer. I run mainly on the road but occasionally on the trails. Track workouts have also been great and I do not feel that the slight increase in weight compared to other shoes on the market has negatively affected my speed.

When I initially started wearing this shoe, I had some blistering on my achilles; however, this was only for the first 2-3 weeks until the show broke in.

I really love the new style and color. The shoe is different then the Glycerin 10 and not just a little. This shoe is a good 3/8" narrower. This can be overcome though by getting a wider option. If you were a Normal width in the 10 then I would recommend the Wide in the 11. It also seems a little less comfortable while running. My feet feel more fatigued after a long run. On short runs it feels solid and a little lighter then the 10. I would definitely recommend insoles to help the cushioning.

This is a potentially great shoe. I go 190 lbs and need a sturdy shoe and cushioning. The 2E unfortunately hardly qualifies as Wide. I wear other Brooks shoes that offer a 4E. If this shoe had a 4E option I would buy it all the time. Please Brooks, wake up, give us a 4E option so we can buy more of these shoes. Get these shoes if you have a normal width foot, wide footers stay away.

I have competed in 18 Ironman races and countless 5k- marathons and always searching for the right shoe. I used orthotics and Asics Kayano's for years then lighter shoes and finally after reading "Born to Run" I threw away my orthotics and bought neutral shoes. I have raced in really lightweight shoes and felt the stress and strain on my Achilles the next day but with these shoes it's the perfect balance of weight and cushioning in a fabulous neutral shoe. I ran 16 miles on a hilly fire road trail and felt great the next day. I will buy two more pairs and rotate. My wife is pleased as I buy a pair of shoes every other week trying to find the perfect fit - now I have them.

Been running for 7 years. Have always used Brooks shoes, tried these and also purchased gel insoles, I have never had a more comfortable running shoe, they were great right out of the box. In fact I bought a second pair, alternating them, the second pair I used on a 10 mile run the first time I wore them. Feet felt great, pretty good for a 60 year old, huh?I highly recommend this shoe for running, I always buy 1/2 size bigger then I wear. Thank you Brooks!!!

I don't ever review products, but this shoe is so comfortable, I felt compelled to do so. I absolutely love this shoe. Coming back from a stress reaction over the summer, I was looking for something to train in for an upcoming marathon. This hit the spot. Great shoes, very comfortable, good fit, and are my favorite pair of running shoes to date, if you don't mind spending a little extra cash on them.

im just starting out with running out side trying to get back into shape and this shoe is so far better then what i have used in the past im 270 or so now and have bin on and off running for about two years and with this shoe i look forward to my run now and do your self good with the custom inserts if i would of had this two year ago who know how fit i could be

I bought these as a complement to my favorite shoes (Asics Nimbus) so I could alternate "rides" on my weekly long runs.

They aren't as cushioned as the Nimbus and feel a little firm at the start of each run. However, as the run goes on they seem to soften up a little and finish feeling just about right.

The other reason they're not five-star is the poor quality of the stock insoles. Toward the end of my first 12-mile run, the left insole started buckling under my arch. I had to stop four times in the last two miles to flatten the insole so I could continue running. This issue seems to occur for three reasons: 1) the insole is extremely thin and has no structure to help it retain its shape; 2) the underside surface of the insole has no texture, which allows the insole to easily slide back/forth on the shoe's foot bed; 3) moisture between the insole and foot bed acts as a lubricant and encourages the insole to buckle.

Conclusion—if you are of the 1% of runners whose feet don't sweat, you'll love this shoe. If you're of the 99%, you'll need to replace the stock insoles to fully enjoy the Glycerin 11.

Luckily, the great people at RRS sent me a pair of their R-Gear Bounce insoles to replace the Brooks stock insoles. Hopefully that will solve the issue.

I have tough feet, wide and bent toes,, so finding good shoes is important. I love my asics, especially cumulus, but tried these and was surprised to find I prefer them. Already getting my second pair.

This shoe is my first to be used for preparation for the L.A. Marathon in March 2014. I'm a big guy (235) and needed a strong durable shoe. What I wasn't expecting was it's the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. The sales person that helped me was so helpful and fun!
